If you are using DW and you dont have a few months to learn a server side language, DW has build in form tools that add server side validation. I dont like or recommend using DW tools vs hand coding, but in a pinch they work well enough.

You'll need to set up a server on your pc, whether php or coldfusion server its up to you.

Could you point me in the direction of some sort of guide? It took me long enough to make the contact form and get it working I dont want to screw it up lol.

Hey Rowan,

Sure, there are several: https://www.google.nl/search?q=how+t...+form+with+php. I haven't tried 'em, but with their help you should be able to get the job done. As for setting up a server on your own computer, that is not necessary if you furthermore do not use php. You can test it online instead.

How to validate your form will depend on which server side validation you have avaliable to do the validation. Any validation you do in JavaScript is for the convenience of the person filling out the form, they can bypass it if they want to.
